strikes me (as an owner of a web hosting service) that DSO is the wrong
answer. What does DSO buy you? NOTHING except a complete waste of
memory...
I'm reading between the lines here, but it sounds like you are trying to
have _one_ parent apache daemon that services _everything_ on the machine
(likely _more_ than one website), which would imply that you are going to
have an _extremely_ low hit ratio on your mod_perl scripts.
it strikes me that you _want_ a frontend proxy to feed your requests to
the smallest number of backend daemons which are most likely to already
have compiled your scripts. This saves memory and CPU, while simplifying
the configuration, and of course, for a dedicated backend daemon, DSO buys
nothing... even if that daemon uses access handlers, it still always needs
mod_perl
That said, we bought modperl-space.com back when domains suddenly got
cheap, but haven't put together a mod_perl package because we really don't
know what folks want/are using it for.

last I heard, olm.net treated their resellers well, but their
tech support to direct clients was supposed to be pretty poor.
